So, per another thread, the idea for this one came up. Knowing we live in a golden age of superhero costumes adapted for the big screen, I'd argue since Sam Raimi's "Spider-man" in 2002 (NOT counting the X-men's biker leathers) which is the best, the very best ever adapted costume on the big or small screen?...Granted, thinking of one probably makes you think of 5 more, all of which sound like good answers ......... and they are!.........but if you had to choose one, which would it be?......and for this site, which figure goes along best? (I'm biased and will always go with a Hot Toy)
For me, it's an embarrassment of riches thanks to the MCU, and I'll go with the SHIELD suit from "Captain America: Winter Soldier." Amazingly unexpected, faithful, functional that set a template for every other Cap uniform to follow, along with inspiring a perfect Hot Toy. It's impossible to pick one MCU costume........looking at you original Iron Man armor, for starters.....but I feel good with my choice.
Yours?

Looks like Medicom has another MAFEX Marvel figure up their sleeves with Black Panther from the Black Panther movie. Shown below via Toyzfrontline are some magazine scans giving us our first look at the upcoming figure. The figure which is slated for an August 2019 release will feature 3 heads, one of which is an unmasked head as well as multiple hands. Stay-tuned for more details and official images to be released soon from Medicom.

Black Panther, one of the movies released by Marvel Studios earlier this year, keeps smashing records and exceeding the box-office and expectations. The Princess of Wakanda, Shuri, is the leader of the Wakandan Design Group responsible for developing this African Nation’s modern technology. When the young King T’Challa is drawn into conflict that puts his homeland Wakanda and the entire world at risk, Shuri has proven herself a great backup on creating new security system and weapons, including the Panther Habits and her cool looking panther-like gauntlets.
Received a tremendous amount of attention in the already-happened exhibitions in San Diego and Hong Kong recently, Hot Toys is more than excited to introduce fans today the long awaited 1/6th scale collectible figure featuring T’Challa’s innovative little sister – Shuri of Black Panther.
Beautifully crafted based on the appearance of Letitia Wright as Shuri in the movie, the highly-accurate collectible figure features a newly developed head sculpt with detailed hair sculpture, a newly developed body, an adorned elaborate new battle suit and neck ring, a Wakandan pattern sash, a wide range of weapons and accessories including a pair of LED light up Vibranium Guantlets, a spear, a Kimoyo Beads bracelet and a movie themed figure stand!

Black Panther is stunning in reimagining Africa’s aesthetic and cultural aspects on a cinematic experience, and fans were deeply amazed by the awe inspiring landscapes and gorgeous infrastructure of Wakanda including the Throne Room. Today, Hot Toys is thrilled to expend on Black Panther Collection series with the one-of-a kind Wakanda Throne reserved for the young King of this futuristic African Nation.
Perfectly crafted with authentic and fantastic details, the movie-accurate 1/6th scale Wakanda Throne collectible stands approximately 32.5cm in height, 19 cm in width features an extra-high back peacock chair that beautifully combined with woven rattan ends, decorated with Wakanda’s unique graphical script, and finished with metallic painting and natural wood grain texture intricately.

We had a lot of reveals and information released this past weekend during the 2018 San Diego Comic Con for Hasbro's Marvel Legends line so I have put together this video and article recapping everything for you in one place.
First off Hasbro confirmed that the MARVEL STUD10'S: The First Ten Years Iron Man 3 Pepper Potts, Iron Man Mark XXII, and The Mandarin 3-pack which was originally slated to be a Toys R' Us exclusive will now be offered as a Amazon.com exclusive. The set is currently up for pre-order with a September 15 release date.
They also confirmed that the Marvel Legends Days of Future Past 18" Sentinel with Logan figure which was also originally going to be a Toys R' Us exclusive will now be offered on Amazon for $99.99. The Sentinel will be a repainted one originally done for the Marvel Universe line. Look for it to be released later this year.
Next up Hasbro revealed a second wave of 6" Marvel Legends Toy Biz Tribute figures. There will be six figures in the wave which includes Ant-Man, Wasp (blue outfit), Black Panther, Scarlet Spider with unmasked head, Sleeveless Hawkeye and Vision with a new cape and random Ultron head. The Wasp figure pays tribute for the very rare Toy Biz Marvel Legends 6" Wasp with blue outfit that only saw a small handful released.
For you Black Panther movie fans Hasbro revealed a second wave of 6" Marvel Legends figures. Originally they had not planned on doing a second wave, but since the movie did so well they rushed a second wave into production. The wave will feature all movie figures that includes Black Panther with new unmasked head, T'Chaka, Erik Killmonger in fatigues with removable Wakandian ceremonial mask, Ulysses Klaue with alternate gun arm, Vibranium Powered Black Panther and Ayo with two alternate heads so you can army build the Wakanda’s Dora Milaje. The Build-A-Figure will be M'Baku (Man-Ape).
For Spider-Man fans Hasbro began revealing the figures for the next wall-crawler themed wave. The figures revealed include Modern Symbiote Spider-Man, Red Goblin, Black Cat, Silver Sable and Kingpin which is the Build-A-Figure and feature 3 heads an diamond cane.
The X-Men will be getting another themed wave as well. The figures they revealed for it includes Reavers member Skullbuster, Blink and Gambit. They said Gambit would have stubble on his face, but the figure they showed did not. I wouldn't be surprised of they don't end up releasing a stubble and non-stubble variant version similar to what we have seen them do with the recent Mysterio and Psylocke figures. There were also indications made during Hasbro's panel that Forge and 90's Jim Lee Storm could be possibilities for the wave as well, though that is not confirmed. With Storm they took a fan poll during the panel to see if people wanted Storm in her silver, white or black outfit. This I could see as another opportunity for Hasbro do do variant versions of. The Build-A-Figure for this wave was not revealed, but again indications were hinted at during the panel that Strong Guy is a likely candidate. My guess is both Forge and Strong Guy will be done in their X-Factor outfits to go along with the recently released Multiple Man.
For the Marvel Legends 6" Riders Series Hasbro announced two new offerings with Deadpool on a red scooter with Squirrel-Pool and Dogpool. Deadpool will have a new headsculpt. The second set announced was the eagerly anticipated Professor Xavier in his 90's Hover Chair. The chair will have a removable stand that looks like a blast effect and control panels on the arms. Professor X will also come with a Cerebro helmet.
A number of new store exclusives were also announced this past weekend.
They will be re-issuing the previous SDCC exclusive Magik figure as a Walgreens exclusive. Magik will come with a sword and translucent Ghostrider like headsculpt and Lockheed.
Walmart will be getting the Netflix Luke Cage/Claire 2-Pack
Target will get a Into The Spider-Verse 2-pack featuring Miles Morales Spider-Man and Spider-Gwen. The figures will come with masked and unmasked heads as well as alternate hands, web and blast type effects.
Gamestop/Online will see 3 different exclusives. For the MARVEL STUD10'S Ten Year Line they will be doing a re-release of the Age Of Ultron Build-A-Figure Ultron figure which will feature a modified headsculpt and better paint applications. For the regular Marvel Legends line they are releasing an Archangel figure which is a re-issue of the previous one they did. The figure will come with 3 alternate heads (Four Horsemen Mask, normal blonde hair, blond hair with black around the eyes). The figure will also come with an alternate claw hand attachment for the new Apocalypse Build-A-Figure. The third exclusive will be an AIM soldier 2-pack similar to the Hydra Soldier one they did last year. The set will come with alternate heads and weapons so you can army build. The AIM 2-Pack is slated for an August release while Ultron and Archangel are due out in December. You can pre-order all three now at Megalopolis.Toys.
While not specifically mentioned during the con, Gamestop will also be releasing a Marvel Legends 6" PS4 Spider-Man game Advance Suit Spider-Man figure.
Everything listed above should be out by the end of 2018 or very early 2019. Hasbro also made a number of teases for 2019 including an updated Hercules figure slated for a new Avengers wave. It's unknown if Hercules will be released as a regular figure or a Build-A-Figure.
Hasbro also teased a comic version of Genis-Vell in his Kree outfit. They would not say what wave it would be released in, but we speculate this is the first figure revealed for the Captain Marvel themed wave Hasbro is likely to do in conjunction with next years Captain Marvel movie.
Hasbro during their panel also showed these slides showing off more teases for 2019. It looks like we will be getting a new Magneto based on the image of his helmet, possibly re-issuing the recently released black and red outfit version repainted to look like the classic red outfit.
The 2017 Steve Rogers Captain America looks like is getting the figure treatment based on the image of the shield. A new Arnim Zola seems to be in the works as well based on that camera thing seen on the top of his head. Updated Mystique appears to be in the works based on the skull belt and possibly a new Quicksilver based on the headsculpt, though some seem to think its a new headsculpt for Magneto.
Finally during their Q&A portion of their panel, when asked about finishing out the MCU Black Order members, they said people wanting those will have their patience rewarded. When I talked to Dwight about them he also indicated how he would like to do a more movie accurate looking Cull Obsidian.
Hasbro also announced they will have a presence at the following conventions this years where they will make additional Marvel Legends reveals.
Unboxing Toy Convention in Mexico - August 4-5
Fan Expo Canada - August 30 - Sept 2
New York Comic Con - Oct 4 - 7 (This will likely be a media event only and they wont have a booth presence)
MCM Comic Con London - Oct 26 - 28
Comic Con Paris - Oct 26 - 28
Lucca Comics & Games Lucca, Tuscany Oct 31 - Nov 4
Hopefully we will see among other things a new Walgreens exclusive Dr. Doom figure announced at one of these upcoming events.
We will be looking for folks who plan on attending most of these conventions for help in covering the reveals for us, so stay-tuned for more details about that in the days to come.
For those who have been asking about the future of 12" Marvel Legends. While they aren't saying the line is done, they don't have any plans to release any more figures in 2018 or early 2019.
For 4" collectors the only figures currently planned are their Gameverse 2-packs originally announced back during Toy Fair.
Let us know in the comments section below what you liked or didn't like from the list above and what you hope to see announced later this year.

Deadpool has gone up against almost everyone in the Marvel Universe…and now, that roster includes the legendary Black Panther in BLACK PANTHER VS. DEADPOOL, a new story from Lockjaw and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert writer Daniel Kibblesmith and artist Ricardo Lopez Ortiz (Hit-Girl, Civil War II: Kingpin).
For a reason he’d rather not disclose (because, well, it makes him look bad!) Deadpool needs a piece of Vibranium…and the only way to get Vibranium is to go through the Black Panther himself! But Deadpool soon learns that his unconventional methods don’t exactly work against the king of the most technologically advanced country on the planet…
“Featuring a brawl you can only get in comics (for now anyway), BLACK PANTHER VS. DEADPOOL is the best of both worlds, equal parts Black Panther/Wakanda and Deadpool/Crazytown,” said Editor Wil Moss. “In bouncing these two characters off each other (and sometimes through each other), Daniel and Ricardo have found some really fascinating insights into what makes them tick as individuals.”
Don’t miss the throw-down of the century when BLACK PANTHER VS. DEADPOOL comes to comic shops this October!

The second hero to join the Avengers: Infinity War Nendoroid series is Black Panther! The figure which stands 10cm tall features full articulation as well as a double-joined neck allowing for all sorts of acrobatic poses befitting the Black Panther!
In order to emphasize his iconic claws, the Nendoroid comes with interchangeable hand parts that are slightly larger than normal. Effect parts to display him slashing at his opponents are also included, and the parts come in a left and right form that attach to his hand parts allowing Black Panther to be displayed in battle with just one hand or slashing with both! Look for it to be released in December. You can pre-order this figure now at HobbyLinkJapan.

Marvel Studio's highly anticipated blockbuster, Black Panther has smashed the box office records globally this year. T’Chaka, the former leader of the Kingdom of Wakanda has gained great respect by serving the technological advanced nation and protecting his people. When his son came to the Ancestral Plane to seek for guidance, T’Chaka replied with his sage wisdom and exclaimed his pride in his son.
Today, Hot Toys is excited to present T’Challa’s departed father, T’Chaka in 1/6th scale collectible figure from Black Panther as a Toy Fair Exclusive item only available in selected markets!
The movie accurate collectible figure is specially crafted based on the image of young T’Chaka in his Black Panther suit in the movie featuring a newly developed helmeted head with highly detailed textures and gold trims, a muscular body, a meticulously tailored black and gold colored battle suit with extreme fine details and textures, a beautifully designed Wakandan pattern sash decorated with waistlet, a fine Kimoyo Beads bracelet and a Black Panther themed figure stand!

ID Toys have posted some shots on their Facebook page of the new Marvel Legends Black Panther wave Marvel Legends, boxed, revealing the BAF and two other figures. Looks like we're getting another Okoye (Danai Gurira's character in the movie) as the BAF, along with Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) and Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o) as individual figures in the wave. Those who were hoping for Man Ape BAF (me included) are set for disappointment! Hopefully Okoye will be good enough in both movie and toy form to help relieve some of that disappointment.
These figures are on display (not for sale) at MCM London.

It's been years since I made a full 6 inches custom figure. Not really making a comeback on this scale, but making a tribute to a great series that has been canceled last year.
EMH or Earth's Mightiest Heroes Avengers art is really cartoonish, a bit different the way they look on the comics. Making a customized figures based on their likeness on the show is kinda challenging since I really want to capture the cartoon feel for the figure. It's kinda ironic since I used DC universe as base figures.
Enjoy the pics guys!
